The well-knoEn Don is out with an open
letter to King Kalakaua, q specimen of which
Is appended. If the Don were to write in
less vituperatiye style he would be far more

letter:

with tears in his eyes begging that his bad
autecedeuts abroad and IN Hawaii be for
given and forgotten, and the stigma of in
famy be Obliterated from him BY appointing
